This Bud's for InBev
  Anheuser-Busch shares rose as the Financial Times floated rumors of a $46 billion takeover offer from Belgium-based InBev, which makes Germany's Beck's, Brazil's Brahma and Belgium's Stella Artois beer. It's the latest strong euro/weak dollar merger pair. FT story here.

    I had a Victory ale in West Chester last Friday. Great beer. Liquid bread. Of course, you do pay more for good local brews.
